The attitude has infected the brass, too.
The Air Force usta have have 2 kinds of officers: warriors and desk commandos; the warriors took care of their men, and the desk commandos took care of themselves.

Let the iPAB determine his level of treatment just like everyone else. He didn't do anything special, not like the brave little girl Fluke who had to suffer the outrageous Limbaugh language! Now, that girl, she's a REAL hero. Everyone knows only the stupid and desperate fought in Bush's WRONG wars...

At the risk of being outted as the board shit-head... I have a bit of a problem with this PTSD. Every single person who served in the war(s) volunteered to do so; and nearly all of them volunteered after the wars started. What did they think they were signing up for? Did they think they'd go over there and hand out candy? It seems to me there probably are some 'real' problems, but it also seems like some of them need to pull up the big boy pants and get over it.

No, but it is the way it is and outside jumping up the food chain and chewing ass there is nothing I can do about it. Took me 3 years to get them to finish digging the shrapnel out of my back/neck.

The president will also remind Americans that they have a duty to care for badly wounded soldiers who will weigh on public finances and American medical resources for decades to come.

It did make for a good campaign speech.

I don't put much stock in that brand of medicine. Men don't need to sit around and get all touchy feely with their feelings.

I think a large number of PTSD cases are people sucking on the teat and in need of a good smack upside the head but an even larger number are real. Even as a volunteer there is no way of knowing what combat is like. There is no frame of reference for it for even the most inner-city hardened kid. You think you can handle killing and being hunted and on constant alert but really most people can't.

This isn't about the dead ones. They are no burden at all.

You mean this market: Stock futures fall on eurozone recession fears
A report shows significant declines in household spending and manufacturing throughout Europe. Global markets tumble. Gold and oil decline.
